The Art of Warfare Blogs: TAW Blogs

December 2016 - Posts

First of all, please welcome Bulletstopper to OPS/TREAS. We've added a third member to TREAS to help support this overgrowing community at the highest level. In light of this new addition, I felt it important for all members and leadership to understand who does what in TREAS.

TAW Treasury manages all financial aspects of our not-for-profit Corporation, The Art of Warfare. We have three positions now that have differing roles and responsibilities within TREAS. For clarification, they have created job descriptions for said roles. You can now find that here.

Greetings and Salutations​ everyone,​Well it's that time of the year again everyone, and the NEWS staff wants to wish everyone in Taw Happy Holidays. No matter how you celebrate this season, we all can be thankful that we are a family of inclusiveness, who reach out their hands this time of year in peace and goodwill to all.​To All of you, from all of us and all of yours, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy New years. See us Here From the Battlefield​​In the meantime, turn the page and enjoy.NEWS Staff

Ladies and gents, After several months of disappearance we've rebuilt and brought graphics requests back for the time being Below you will find all the info you need to make requests and more info to use the right form.

Firstly, you will be able to see the 'Request graphic' button in our Graphics division channel in teamspeak which will redirect you to a page where you will get 3 options, we recommend you do so as to avoid having to find them every time

SEAL REQUESTS - Seal requests are self explanatory, they are for seals and seals alone.

OFFICIAL REQUESTS - Official requests are anything with the underlying category, alongside this, this form is meant for General TAW events and such

AVATAR REQUESTS -Avatar requests are for any personalized avatars that don't fall under a SEAL or Any of the listed official requests, ( this is where you ask for teamspeak avatars/signatures etc), the category is as follows

Personalized avatars for anything other than the TAW seal or an Official requestSteam/uplay/origin related avatars, Signatures for forums.

A little background: This is designed in such a way for us to provide maximum effectiveness with getting requests out in a timely manner, We get alot of requests hence we have to narrow them to different forms to help delegate them to appropriate designers, If you have any questions or are unsure of what something your requesting may fall under contact Abnormalskillz@taw.net, For any SHOP related inquiries contact Calico@taw.net

Greeting to everyone,

It’s my pleasure to say that Graphic Division is from now on looking for recruiting around 5 members which will join us and help us with our projects.

We are looking for full-time members (require transfer to GFX) with some kind of graphical/design abilities to re-start making custom avatars for members of the community. One of the tasks GFX have is making sure that SHOP has all sort of designs. In future, we will also provide help and support with designing our new TAW website. GFX is searching for members which have time, will and motivation to help the community in all kind of ways.

As for now, our first priority is to build up the numbers and start working on avatars and shop designs. As a side activity, GFX also helps NEWS and TSO by providing the content for blogs and streaming (e.g. banners, backgrounds, twitch overlays, content for recruitment and tournaments).

You can check some of GFX members work here to get idea of what we create: GFX Imgur

What GFX, for now, can offer you is a place where you can learn and perfect & practice your graphic abilities, a place where you can help a wide range of divisions and in that way contribute to our community.

Requirements to join GFX:

Only apply if you have the time to dedicate yourself to TAW's graphics department.

We work in photoshop by default, therefore we cannot assist or help you with other programs, so have a solid copy of photoshop.

If you are after reading all this still interested in joining Graphic Division, please send us examples of your work (any kind of graphic work) and a small introduction of yourself to MARINE and Abnormalskillz ( include both of us in the same mail: MARINE@taw.net & Abnormalskillz@taw.net ).
